Nevermind. I mean don't jump the gun. You don't know what this is yet!
No.
[ It's actually a struggle to type the next few words. ]
But I know what I want it to be.

So??
That's never mattered before.
[ It's never kept anyone around. But he's also never liked anyone like this before. Never. ]

You're worried about screwing up. [ She stops just short of adding 'like you always do' ]
Tell me more!
Tell me more!
Of COURSE I'm worried about that!!
[ She doesn't have to say it. He's already thinking it. ]
Tell you WHAT
That he's sweet
and polite
and clean.
[ And confident without being arrogant. And dependable without being boring. And cute. So fucking cute. ]
And he's going to realize that I'm just this
well-dressed mess of a person.

You're not always a mess, just most of the time.
What's that they say? Fake it till you make it. If you like him then it'll be worth it.

[ Oh. My god. David drops his phone like it's burned him when he realizes that the person who has just answered him is not Alexis like he'd planned.
How many people have had spontaneous heart attacks brought on by panic in their 30s? David almost becomes a statistic. ]
Oh my god.
I'm sorry that was for my sister.
Um.
I guess you know I had a nice time, then?

Thank you. You are just the best at offering support, Alexis.
Teach me how to fake it, then!!

EWW, ALEXIS
It doesn't come SO EASILY for some!

It's not THAT hard if you put a little effort in.

So what would one do FIRST?
If they were going to
fake being cool and casual.

Well, you want to be...kind of aloof. Like have an air about you. If Patrick says something that normally you might let's just say...go all David about, maybe don't.
Just be like...that's cool.
[ In all honesty David, why would you go to your sister of all people for advice on this. She's just as messed up as you are, just in a different way. ]

[ Would a sarcasm-induced heart attack technically be manslaughter?
This is cute. Very cute, though part of him wonders what Alexis' verdict would have been on the matter. ]
Norman Bates vibe notwithstanding?
[ It's all the button-downs and sweaters, right. The khakis. The clean-mouth. ]
I hoped you had a nice time.
I know I did.

Oh, please.
Like you could hide your mother's corpse successfully with Ray around.
[ He can't un-hear that association, though. He wants to make a joke about a stabbing in a shower. Don't make a joke about a stabbing in a shower, David. Don't scare him off. ]
If you're into the whole crossdressing thing, though... 😉
[ Damn it, David. ]
You did?
How nice?

I'll have you know I have been called worse things than 'aloof'.
So okay. Easy enough.
[ But... he doesn't want to be aloof. Patrick doesn't deserve that. The reminder that Alexis isn't any better at this than he is strikes him as he's realizing that. ]
How'd that work out with Stavros?

You're the one who came to me for advice, David.
And I'm pretty sure Patrick is NOT Stavros.
So you know...be yourself and maybe he'll like you anyway. If nothing else you can tell him all about your cool little sister and that'll win you some points.
[OOC: Comment too long for subject line. I have a friend who plays David and Mutt, and another who plays Alexis. I also have a Patrick and a Stevie but don't bust them out much.]

[ HE CAN'T ARGUE WITH THE RAY OF IT ALL. ]
😳
Maybe that's also more of a night five activity.
[ It's not a no! Very few things would be a no, with David. Across those two nights, Patrick has likely already told David that he doesn't know what he's into, not really. It's a recently jump-started thing — and, yeah, it's nice. ]
The best.
[ 100% sincere. ]

I'm kidding!
I'm mostly kidding.
[ David isn't tactless. He's going slow. He loves how wide-eyed and open Patrick has been about it all. It's just that sometimes he can't help his mouth getting the better of him and teasing Patrick back is like a little high. ]
I love how you always look like you're ready for a meeting.
Even in the morning.

Oh is that what happened?
[ He knows Patrick isn't. That's what's scary about it all. ]
Thankfully, from what he's told me I don't have to worry about him scoring points with my sister.
( OOC: Oh, awesome! You're welcome to add my plurk (kaitniss) if you like, because I would definitely hit your Patrick or Stevie in a hot second too! )

You can do this, David. I believe in you or whatever.
